1024

Для игры в 1024 не нужны эмуляторы. Игра жанра “головоломки”, которую подарили миру Yprit и Undertaker, была издана компанией 64KYLOBYTES в 2020 году в России.

The 64KYLOBYTES team proudly presents the new logic game for ZX Spectrum named “1024”. In this game, you will need to put chips on the square 4×4 gameboard to get as many scores as you can!

Game rules

You can place only one chip per move, each chip has the value selected randomly by the computer and shown on the right side of the board. In case the same board column or the board row (not a diagonal!) has at least one chip with the same value, they are merged together. The value of the newly placed chip is multiplied by two and all other chips are removed.

If the value 1024 is reached, all fields near the chip are cleared (whole row, column, and diagonals).

In case three or more chips were merged, the value still multiplied by two, however the number of possible exchanges of the next chip (which is displayed by the number under the “next chip” icon). This exchange number is zero at the beginning, and the maximum value is 9. If you don’t like the next chip value, you can replace it if possible. In this case, the new chip value is also generated randomly and CAN be equal to the previous one.
